Gov. Hickenlooper shuts down U.S. 36 west of Lyons
Sep 22nd
In a rather draconian move, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper announced this afternoon that the State of Colorado has contracted with a Colo. National Guard engineering company to rebuild U.S. 36 between Lyons and Estes Park. Work on the highway has begun from both directions – from the Town of Lyons and the Town of Estes Park – with similar equipment and crews working towards each other.
In an effort to expedite construction, all traffic on U.S. 36 west of Lyons is prohibited, effectively immediately.
Beginning Monday, all access to Apple Valley Rd will be severely restricted between the hours of 7 a.m. – 6 p.m.
The closure applies to vehicular, cycling, and pedestrian traffic. The closures will specifically impact residents of Spring Gulch and Blue Mountain areas. Also, until this project is completed there will be no vehicular, cycling, or pedestrian access to Pinewood Springs.
At this time, there is no estimated timeline for completion of this project. We hope to be able to provide that information soon.
